ps_string_geometry - Gets geometry of a string

SYNOPSIS

       array ps_string_geometry (resource  $psdoc, string  $text, [int	$fontid], [float  $size = 0.0])

DESCRIPTION

	This  function	is  similar  to  ps_stringwidth(3) but returns an array of dimensions containing the width, ascender, and descender of the
       text.

PARAMETERS

	      o $psdoc
		- Resource identifier of the postscript file as returned by ps_new(3).

	      o $text
		- The text for which the geometry is to be calculated.

	      o $fontid
		- The identifier of the font to be used. If not font is specified the current font will be used.

	      o $size
		- The size of the font. If no size is specified the current size is used.

RETURN VALUES

	An array of the dimensions of a string. The element 'width' contains the width of the string as returned by ps_stringwidth(3). The element
       'descender' contains the maximum descender and 'ascender' the maximum ascender of the string.

NAME

       PDF::API2::Resource::BaseFont - base font class

METHODS

       $font = PDF::API2::Resource::BaseFont->new $pdf, $name
	   Returns a font resource object.

       $font = PDF::API2::Resource::BaseFont->new_api $api, $name
	   Returns a font resource object. This method is different from 'new' that it needs an PDF::API2-object rather than a
	   Text::PDF::File-object.

       $descriptor = $font->descrByData()
	   Returns the fonts FontDescriptor key-structure based on the fonts data.

	   Returns the fonts name (aka. display-name).

       $name = $font->altname()
	   Returns the fonts alternative-name (aka. windows-name for a postscript font).

       $name = $font->subname()
	   Returns the fonts subname (aka. font-variant, schriftschnitt).

       $name = $font->apiname()
	   Returns the fonts name to be used internally (should be equal to $font->name).

       $issymbol = $font->issymbol()
	   Returns the fonts symbol flag.

       $iscff = $font->iscff()
	   Returns the fonts compact-font-format flag.

	   Returns the fonts capheight value.

       $xheight = $font->xheight()
	   Returns the fonts xheight value.

       $missingwidth = $font->missingwidth()
	   Returns the fonts missingwidth value.

	   Returns the fonts avgwidth value.

       $flags = $font->flags()
	   Returns the fonts flags value.

       $stemv = $font->stemv()
	   Returns the fonts stemv value.

       $isfixedpitch = $font->isfixedpitch()
	   Returns the fonts isfixedpitch flag.

       $underlineposition = $font->underlineposition()
	   Returns the fonts underlineposition value.

       $underlinethickness = $font->underlinethickness()
	   Returns the fonts underlinethickness value.

       $ascender = $font->ascender()
	   Returns the fonts ascender value.

       $descender = $font->descender()
	   Returns the fonts descender value.

GLYPH RELATED METHODS

       @names = $font->glyphNames()
	   Returns the defined glyph-names of the font.

       $glNum = $font->glyphNum()
	   Returns the number of defined glyph-names of the font.

       $uni = $font->uniByGlyph $char
	   Returns the unicode by glyph-name.

       $uni = $font->uniByEnc $char
	   Returns the unicode by the fonts encoding map.

       $uni = $font->uniByMap $char
	   Returns the unicode by the fonts default map.

       $char = $font->encByGlyph $glyph
